next project

[NW Modeling List]

Stephen, All,
I am compiling modeling era responses specific for our group, since this is
our target market.  Stephen, you didn't mention your era, do you model a
particular time frame?  Everyone else, please send your years modeled if
you haven't already.  I have put the preliminary information into the start
of a spreadsheet that should reveal the years that have the most interest
and therefore the greatest demand for models.
Thanks again,
Jim
